I did mate, popped over, clocked your car and thought i would tax you for a beer! Did shout out to you on Indianapolis on Friday but that beanie must have deflected your hearing!

I did hear you bumped into one of our group Tyre Smoke on Friday at the parade.

I opted to go over to Houx roundabout with Shnozz on the Friday this year.

Not sure of the symptoms you've got, but I thought I needed a new lock solenoid when pax door wouldn't open from outside - after advice on here I removed and cleaned plunger switch on door sill and hey presto - no recurrence.

Corin,

I do believe I have got your old 4.0 Chimaera. What's the best way to get in touch?

Chris.

Hi Corin,
I've got same problem I think. Basically I can't lock or unlock the passenger door with the blipper thingy on the key fob. Can you please let me know how you get on. Better still how does one go about finding and fixing it?? Garage 'fixed' it before but only for a day and at mega cost. I understand from another thread that you take beer vouchers? Regards David.

Must be something going around as I've got the same problem.

I blitzed everything with WD40 when it happened once before, looks like I'll have to do it again.
